Barnes & Klatt

Barnes & Klatt, P.C. was established in 2000 by Dr. Ann Barnes and Dr. Sylvia Klatt. The duo sought to provide a unique service to residents of the northwest Chicago suburbs. They brought together a team of caring professionals who are dedicated to helping people find real solutions to real problems.

The practice is committed to treating the whole person - body, mind, and spirit. Barnes & Klatt believes that when that balance is successfully achieved, the individual or group is empowered to live a meaningful life and to achieve their full potential. The staff understands that the quality of the interpersonal therapeutic relationship is vitally important to the positive outcome of the treatment experience.

Barnes & Klatt offers the highest quality treatment for individuals of all ages, as well as couples and families. As clinically appropriate, the practice collaborates with a wide range of treatment providers and healthcare professionals. The staff believes that all individuals have the capacity to learn, change, and grow. They value mutual trust and respect in the therapeutic relationship and strive to provide a supportive, safe, nurturing, and comfortable atmosphere to help patients cope with life's challenges and facilitate positive change.

Life Stressors and Therapy

Life stressors, transitions, loss, self-esteem and identity, trauma, interpersonal conflicts, and medical illness are just a few factors that may cause imbalance and disruption in life. Therapy helps to identify and understand the psychological, emotional, physical, behavioral, and situational aspects contributing to distress. It helps to develop effective coping skills and strategies, increase self-awareness and mindfulness, improve problem-solving and decision-making skills, and ultimately restore balance.

Services Offered

Barnes & Klatt offers a variety of services to cater to the diverse needs of its patients. These services include cognitive-behavioral therapy, interpersonal therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and more. The staff at Barnes & Klatt is dedicated to providing professional and personal service to help people of all ages find real solutions to real problems.

The health and wellness of Barnes & Klatt's patients and team members are always the top priority, especially amid peak flu season and in light of the coronavirus.

The practice encourages patients to wash their hands with warm water and soap for a minimum of 20 seconds and to refer to the CDC guidelines for more details.
